I’m so sorry for the loss of your husband, @Tara25 - that is devastating.

You’re not alone. You might want to connect with @Suejulez whose ex-husband recently sadly died. You may understand some of what each other are going through. She shared her story in this thread a few days ago:

  • Our Bereavement Information pages which can walk you through what you are going through.

Take good care and keep reaching out,
